well with higher apm u can do alot more at same time. like drop 2 places at once and macro good. micro macro etc etc. but to spam to mutch is just waste.
like my apm is around 145-165 normal but in combats i have like 250-320.


OMFG when do ppl realize that high APM is in some cases an indicator of good multitasking? Not everytime, because of these apm spammers.

Good multitasking = ok/high apm. high apm IS NOT same as good multitasking.

Like: When you masturbate and get orgasm, not everytime you get orgasm you were masturbating..

I'm z player and my apm goes from 190-230 and my hotkey% goes from 20-40% (depending on gamelenght, MU and how the game is going ^^)...
but still i never have the feeling of having anything done, its like "oh damn allready 3 larvaes again at my 8sz hatch^^" :D
especially for zvp my apm midgame goes up to 230++ for several minutes when i keep moving my forces on the map (i'm a very lingheavy zvp player so its constant 1move2move3move4move)...
the only thing i dont get is how the very good players (best example would be mondi, just watch his hotkeyusing) keep macroing on 567890 during hole game O_O

i only manage to macro like this during earlygame, or in best case untill hive tehc >.<

this is how it should look like ;o

eamp =eactual apm no spam or somthing like that

you can have like 250APM but your EAPM is like 150

this mean that with 150apm you can do the same as 250apm because 100apm is for useles action right clicking 5 time spaming hotkeys and similar stuff

spamming gives u 2 things : warmup -->then ur fingers are more "hot" and u will masterise better hotkey in the game
--> hotkey automatism usage
Don't listen ppl who says spamming and apm is shit, thats neither true nor wrong.

Spamming in the earlier times of the game helps u to warm up, later it can doom you to failure.

"Dont worry about getting 400 apms, just worry to make the apms that you have worth."

There are gosu players with 175 - 200 apms, specially toss player. The thing that more apms give is MICRO. Use the 1-5 or more hotkeys to group all your units everytime.. allways re groupthem before and after a battle, Use hotkey to set positions on your map, to create shortcuts to KEY LOCATIONS.

Make some macro 2... with 2 hotkeys is enought.
That will get you more usefull AMPS, that spaming an scv the whole game XD

im a god damn noob 2, but with the things i told u i get: 100-120 micro 40-50 macro, that gives me a 150-175 apm. Fair enought for a noob...

Well the interesting thing about SC is how vital APM is to your play. Sure, P can be played relatively well using 130-150 apm, and you can accomplish most everything, but Z for example, going 1sd2sd3sd4sd5sd6sd7sd8sd9sd all day then regrouping to mass units with any race 1a2a3a4a5a6a7a etc it adds on a lot of apm very quickly. Spamming generally only occurs at the start of the game to just get yourself pumped up, or moving fast before you actually NEED the 200-300 apm you are spamming at. I usually average 160ish as P, but my starting APM is around 250 =/

warcraft is noob friendly, anyone can spam 1-2 hotkeys since you spend all your time watching same old army on same old one screen, in starcraft at start it's also same easy to spam but as game developes it is impossible to keyspam as you simply fly all over the map. to be pro in sc you need apm 220-250, to be pro in wc3 you need 120-150

Plz guys go kill yourselves, It's not APM you need, Its the fucking multitasking and being good enough in it.
Only spamming that benefits you somehow is in the start to get you ready to game/warm up like so many times stated here.
